Note that this package provides only VPN profiles but not the vendor’s software.

The package version refers to the python-pia tool by @flamusdiu, which may lag behind the vendor’s own VPN software version.

Please do not flag this package out-of-date unless @flamusdiu releases a new stable python-pia version.

Thank you!

@meticulo: whoops. you can clone the package and run updpkgsums. Update: I just did this and got the same check sums. I wonder if something is wrong when you download it. If you do the command above, post the checksums for me if you get it to install afterwards.

@flamusdiu: Thank you for actively developing this package! Very useful! I have been using and updating for awhile, but I have not been able to upgrade lately due to the following errors (below) following the command: makepkg -sci. Would you kindly explain how I can correct these invalid files and install the new build? Thanks again! ==> Validating source files with sha256sums... openvpn-ip-lport.zip ... FAILED openvpn.zip ...

@finch: cool you got it working. If you for some reason do not want to run NetworkManager, you can run Connman or openvpn directly. choice is up two you.

@flamusdiu - I don't know much about Docker, so I decided to troubleshoot the network connection instead. I'm using NetworkManager and wasn't able to find any conflicting networkd or dhcpcd services running. However, after I got NetworkManager installed the first time, I have been using WiFi. I plugged into LAN, removed the private-internet-access directory and started again. This time I was able to successfully install your package. I did have one final hiccup. When running pia -a as root, I was informed I needed to run systemctl daemon-reload. After doing that, all VPN connections failed. I rebooted, and everything seems good now. Thanks for your help!

@finch: very odd. It seems to do something with the setuptools. If I kill my network connection, then try and install it, then I get a similar error. I created a docker container on my windows box to test out installing it in a clean Arch. Docker here: https://hub.docker.com/r/flamusdiu/archlinux-devel/ I create the container then: docker -it flamusdiu/archlinux-devel /bin/fish (or bash) Then you can run the git commands or run "aura -Aakx private-internet-access-vpn"

@flamusdiu - here's full output. Looks like everything goes fine right up until "install." http://pastebin.com/wMXfgWGz If there's another way you want me to get output, let me know.

I would not use IPv6 with the VPN. To my knowledge it doesn't work properly. See: https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/forum/discussion/21565/ipv6-leaking-despite-ipv6-leak-protection I would disable IPv6 and then do the tests and let me know. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/IPv6#Disable_IPv6

@flamusdiu I looked into these links you provided me https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Private_Internet_Access_VPN#Troubleshooting and https://github.com/flamusdiu/python-pia/issues/13. They still cause dns and ipv6 to leak. The weird thing is I'm two websites https://www.dnsleaktest.com/ and http://dnsleak.com/ the first one tells me it's leaking but the second one which is link provided by pia says i'm not. I'm not sure what to do here.

@finch: Here's my output when I install it: http://pastebin.com/svR07fpf I am using "--cleanbuild --force" to ensure the build process is new and because I already have it installed. It appears to not be able to reach some URL but the out put doesn't say. Can you post the whole build process for me?

finch commented on 2017-02-21 03:13 (UTC)

@flamusdiu: Apologies if I'm misunderstanding. I ran 'git clone' to download the package first, then cd to the new directory. From there, I ran 'makepkg -sri' to attempt to install.
